Mimikyu is a staple on Ghost-type teams as Disguise allows it to deal with Dark-types and faster threats such as Barraskewda. Its mediocre attack forces it to use Life Orb to deal significant damage to neutral targets, while Swords Dance can further boost its Attack and take advantage of Disguise. Play Rough is the main STAB move that threatens Dark and Fighting-types such as Meowscarada, Krookodile, and Quaquaval. Shadow Sneak allows Mimikyu to clean up faster threats that could otherwise revenge kill it such as Dragapult and Flutter Mane. Drain Punch helps against Steel-types like Kingambit as well as offers some recovery, because Disguise's recoil, entry hazards, and Life Orb residual damage can wear it down pretty easily. Wood Hammer can potentially be used instead of Drain Punch to hit Pokemon such as Quagsire better, but the recoil damage isn't appreciated.

All of Mimikyu's teammates appreciate its ability to take on Dark-type teams. Froslass and Brambleghast can place Spikes on the field to help Mimikyu clean up more easily and can use Taunt and Rapid Spin to prevent it from getting worn down. Choice Scarf Flutter Mane can help Mimikyu against both Dark- and Dragon-type teams by taking down faster threats that could kill it after Disguise has been removed such as Meowscarada and Chien-Pao. Nasty Plot Gholdengo deals with bulkier teams like Ground and Poison, while also being able to absorb Toxic from bulky walls such as Toxapex. Furthermore, Gholdengo can also run Trick with a Choice item, which can be given to annoying walls such as Quagsire and Dondozo to help Mimikyu deal with them. Polteageist can clean up Poison teams after Skuntank is dead, as well as Ground, Water and Fighting teams. Spiritomb can help the team by checking some Dark-type attacks so that Mimikyu doesn't have to waste its ability. Skeledirge can take some hits from foes like Iron Valiant and Dragalge to help Mimikyu preserving Disguise. Dragapult can use a Dragon Dance set to boost itself against faster Pokemon that threaten Mimikyu such as Iron Moth.

Mimikyu is a staple on Ghost-type teams as Disguise allows it to deal with Dark-types (not really only dark types, you can use Mimi to 1v1 Barra, for instance. Its just a neat safety net vs stinks like Chien Pao, Kingambit too). Its mediocre attack forces it to use Life Orb to deal significant damage to neutral targets, while Swords Dance can further boost its Attack and take advantage of Disguise. Play Rough is the main STAB move that threatens Dark and Fighting-types such as Meowscarada, Hydreigon (Take note that Meow and Hydrei are faster than mimi, maybe other examples would be nicer?), and Quaquaval. Shadow Sneak allows Mimikyu to clean up faster threats that could otherwise revenge kill it such as Dragapult and Flutter Mane. Drain Punch helps against Steel-types such as Kingambit as well as offers some recovery, as due Disguise's recoil, entry hazards, and Life Orb residual damage, it can get worn down pretty easily.

All of Mimikyu's teammates appreciate its ability to take on Dark-type teams. Froslass and Brambleghast can place Spikes on the field to help Mimikyu cleaning up more easily. (Bramble and Lass also provide entry hazard control un top of spikes, letting mimi preserve its HP better, but merge this thought in that sentence) Choice Scarf Flutter Mane can help Mimikyu against both Dark- and Dragon-type teams by taking over faster threats that could kill it after Disguise has been removed such as Meowscarada and Chien-Pao. Nasty Plot Gholdengo deals with bulkier teams such as Ground- and Poison-type teams, while also being able to absorb Toxic from bulky walls such as Toxapex. Furthermore, Flutter Mane and (FM has no trick, fortunately) Gholdengo can also run Trick along with a Choice item, which can be given to annoying walls such as Quagsire and Dondozo to help Mimikyu deal with them. Brambleghast can remove hazards with Rapid Spin to avoid Mimikyu getting worn down, (Bramb already said above) while Polteageist can clean up Poison-teams after Skuntank is dead, as well as Ground, Water and Fighting teams. Spiritomb can help the team by checking some Dark-type attacks so that Mimikyu doesn't have to waste its ability.
*Missing team mates like Dragapult, Cerul/Skeledirge. I'd drop Polteagist if ever.

1/2, great job spooky guy :blobnom:
 

Ashbala

You can pretend that it was me, but no, oh ♪
is a Pre-Contributor
Good stuff AtraX Madara :blobwizard:

I would also like to mention wood hammer as a slash of drain punch in some cases as it helps dealing more ground walls such as quagsire, Ting lu etc.

Rest seems good and implement after and QC: 2/2
